Billy & I collaborated on a project over the weekend! We had so much fun turning these on the lathe!
I'm posting some pics taken during the process so you can see a little bit of what goes in to them:)
Hand-turned wood and acrylic earrings!
They start out just a chunk of wood...
Then turned down to circular shape...
Then we drill a whole through...and cut into a bunch of pieces!
Ready to sand & polish...

Me!
Our little workshop helpers...
Acrylic turned piece, ready for sanding and polishing!
ooohhhh shiny....
This was a lot of fun, I can't wait to make a ton more!
Great to see in the process. I wont tell you my age but---I remember when wood or acrylic earrings were the rage--late 1960's - 70's
